I don't know if Dumoulin is quite on Martin's level yet, but he's also eleven years younger (I think?) and has only one full season under his belt. He's got plenty of time to grow still!

Looking very roughly at their stats (including playoffs), I'd call it in favor of Dumoulin, but in any case it's closer than some Martin fans would want to admit http://i.imgur.com/pSvzMk5.png

The amount of interest I have (or would have had) in Paul Martin just went up significantly with that last bit of information. What I wouldn't give for fics where the professional male athletes acted like actual professional male athletes. That was one thing I really enjoyed during my brief visit with baseball RPF.

Rumor has it he's a big coke fiend and got Trouba into it in a bad way. It's probably a Winnipeg Hate™ exaggeration, but a fic I would read nonetheless.

AYRT

I actually agree with you; I would love it if Martin were actually portrayed that way, it would be really interesting. Even combining the team mom/playboy archetypes could be fun; he makes breakfast for last night's hookup and pitiful teammates who can't feed themselves!

But everyone who writes Paul Martin either sanitizes him or uses him as a service top for poor woobified sub Beau Bennett/James Neal, and it especially goes hand in hand with a sweet, innocent portrayal of Beau that makes no sense taken with how he acts on social media. So no thanks, fandom.

+ 1 to all of this (definitely idfic that I personally enjoyed but considering I also like some of schizzar/icehot/amosanguis obviously YMMV.)

I've tried, since I have friends who like Martin. But yeah, they like him as this boring caretaker/teddy bear, and combining that persona with his white bread looks is just a total dud for me. Where's Martin the hardcore bdsm top?

My dyslexic ass read this as 'got into Trouba in a bad way.' Which I would also very much read.

I mean, that fic does exist. But has the caretaker aspect to it too.

Re: Things You Wouldn't Admit Unanon

(Anonymous) 2016-05-29 07:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I could see that. OK, the one where someone gets the upper hand on him? Because that's what puts me off, he always seems so smug IRL and in fic.

If my TL is anything to go by, Joe Thornton's entire media scrum was about his beard.

Meanwhile, Ian Cole has informed the world that his ear is his best feature, "Nicely shaped, well maintained, no waxy buildup."

Both are good!

Sex-for-coke hooker fic is something I don't think I've seen in any fandom ... but now I want it.

Whenever I post about wanting to bang my favorite on my public, I secretly hope he vanity-searches himself and sees it, since he's very far from being famous.

I didn't realize until now that the alumni association was separate from the NHLPA. That explains a lot.

Man, I wish that one didn't have that weird, seemingly spite-driven background S/G breakup, because it really brought down my enjoyment level while reading.

Re: Things You Wouldn't Admit Unanon

(Anonymous) 2016-05-29 08:16 pm (UTC)(link)
The one where Paul Martin picks Beau up at a kink club has that? Huh, I did not remember that at all.

Re: Things You Wouldn't Admit Unanon

(Anonymous) 2016-05-29 08:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Neither do I. I wonder if anon has mixed up fics.

Re: Things You Wouldn't Admit Unanon

(Anonymous) 2016-05-29 08:18 pm (UTC)(link)
na

I don't know if it was spite-driven, but yeah, there's this small subplot of Sid giving Beau sad advice that's clearly rooted in a bad breakup with Geno.

No, it's in there.

God forbid people don't write S/G as perfect.

Re: Eyebrow Bracket - Round 3!

(Anonymous) 2016-05-29 08:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Wow, yes. That hits so many of my badwrong fave tropes. This would be the perfect fandom for it too.

Re: Things You Wouldn't Admit Unanon

(Anonymous) 2016-05-29 08:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Lol she literally wrote that because some anon gave her shit for writing too much S/G and being too much of an OTPer. So she pulled Martin/Bennett out of her ass and broke S/G up to prove how ~edgy she could be. I'm not going to applaud her for that.

Re: Things You Wouldn't Admit Unanon

(Anonymous) 2016-05-29 08:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Wow, what a deeply ungenerous description of whatever went on. And what excellent telepathic skills on your part!

/did not like that aspect of the fic, do no like this comment either

I don't have any commentary on the motivations of the writer, but it was very out of left field in the story.
